1Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

mrt 27, 2018

Case: This case shows the findings of an advanced apical HCM phenotype in a 50-60 year old man. The diagnosis was made 6 years ago when he presented with atrial fibrillation. His prior medical history was unremarkable and his family history revealed a sudden cardiac death of this father below the age of 50 years. […]

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy case 2 – typical HCM (progression)

mrt 26, 2018

Case: A 30-40 year old man, a carrier of a pathogenic MYBPC3 mutation which was found during familial cascade screening. The following images show the progression of this disease during follow up (on examinations at 2010 and 2017). He has been free of cardiac complaints. The ECG at presentation was unremarkable, with borderline LVH voltage […]

Hypertrophy cardiomyopathy case 1 – typical HCM

mrt 26, 2018

Case: This case shows typical echocardiographic findings in a patient with a non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The images are of a 50-60 year old woman who was diagnosed with this disease after family cascade screening. She was found to be a carrier of a pathogenic MYBPC3 mutation. She was asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis, […]

Amyloid: preserved LVEF and severe LVH

nov 10, 2016

Case: 55-year old male who was known for several years with asymptomatic concentric left ventricular hypertrophy. This condition was also known in his family, although no genetic testing was performed. He developed complaints of heart failure (NYHA functional class III/IV) for which he was admitted. The ECG showed a decrease in QRS voltage compared to […]

Amyloidosis: reduced LVEF

apr 24, 2016

Case 2: Amlyloidosis with reduced LVEF Patient with progressive dyspnea complaints for almost 1 year. Admitted to our ward with severe heart failure (NYHA IV/IV). The findings on ultrasound were performed with the patient on dobutamine infusion. The ECG showed a sinus tachycardia with microvoltages of the QRS-complex. 2D assessment shows concentric LVH and a […]

Amyloid: preserved LVEF and moderate LVH

apr 24, 2016

Case: A 71-year old male who was known for several years with asymptomatic moderate concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and a paroxysmal 2nd degree Wenckebach AV-block. He developed heart failure / congestion due to atrial fibrillation with a total AV-block with a junctional rhythm of 45/min. He was admitted and recompensed. The echocardiogram and CMR were […]
